Hello ,
I want to generate an signal of an ambient light in multisim.I know that it will of 50Hz or 60Hz depending on the country but will be the amplitude of ambient light.
Can someone post some details of the ambient light as I want to generate it.
Thanks in Advance.
 

What do you mean by this.
I know that it will of 50Hz or 60Hz depending on the country but will be the amplitude of ambient light.

Can you please elaborate the question so that it is more understandable.
 

I just want to generate the ambient light signal so just need its characteristics like the amplitude, frequency.
And I read in some paper like the ambient light frequency will be around 50Hz.
SO I need ambient light details.
 

The question is rather vague. Your apparently talking about artificial light, but it's characteristics can be quite different.

- Incandescent lamp light is almost unmodulated due to the large time constant of filaments
- mains frequency operated fluorescent lamps have strong 100/120 Hz modulation
- electronical ballasts of fluorescent energy saving lamps operate at high frequencies between 20 and 50 kHz, the light is also modulated with double drive frequency, but with lower modulation index caused by fluorescence time constant

From on optical communication viewpoint, you face an increasing enviromental pollution of modulated light sources.
